I realized that I have a program called usetool that I must have installed some time. What is that i thought, so my first try to find out was to try 'man usetool'. ...No manpage. Ok, next try, 'usetool -h' ...Good it has documentation, unfortunately the coloring made it unreadable, but with a lot of effort and eye-strain I could at least see that it has the -nc option. Ok, next try, 'usetool -nc -h' ...Dissapointment, still unreadable! I just wanted to let you know since it has relevance in this quarrel. I realize that the correct way to report this is to the bugzilla, and I will do that. -- Christer -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
